MISSIONARY

Prayer Requests for Week Commencing: 03-12 - 12

 

The following information comes mainly from the Echoes weekly prayer bulletin and further details can be found on their web site. Other prayer requests have come from direct communication with the missionary involved.  The prayer requests listed here are, as far as is sensibly practical, for activities that are happening on the particular week. A list of previous weekly Missionary Prayer requests can be found here.

The Assembly also, most months, publishes a monthly Missionary Prayer Newsletter, for prayer requests on a longer time-scale. Click here for the last monthly prayer newsletter.

 

BOTSWANA

Clark and Hazel Logan (Gaborone) ask prayer for a series of gospel meetings to be held in the village of Tsolamosese, where two believers started a Sunday School earlier in the year. The chief and village elders have given permission to proceed.

FRANCE

David and Brigitte Sutherland (Arras) - On the evenings of 6th – 9th December, the city of Lyon organize their annual “Festival of

Lights”. During these four evenings, hundreds of thousands of people walk through the streets of Lyon. A number of local believers a few years ago decided to give Bibles to people and to explain about “another kind of light” which exists. Thousands of Bibles have been bought in order to give away. Please pray for this outreach.

Chris and Michelle Hall - On 8th December the English speaking choir will be performing at the Chateau-Gontier Christmas market. Pray that it will encourage people to attend the English carol service the following week (Saturday 15th December).

Mike and Alison Packer (Laval) – Please continue to pray for Alison as she has had another bout of illness only 5 days after stopping the antibiotics she had been taking since September. Her consultant is now going to try to find a specialised hospital.

Noel and Liza McMeekin (Drum) – Around 2500 Christmas shoeboxes have been packed and are now ready for distribution.  Pray for L who has helped with the work and consequently showing an interest in spiritual things.  In addition, they would value prayer for several Christmas outreach activities, that many would be encouraged to also show a spiritual interest. Noel will be visiting each house in Cootehill before Christmas with gospel literature, a ladies outreach craft night is to be held on 5th December, and on 9th December people will be invited to a ‘friendship’ evening at the assembly.

Colin and Rosemary Sheldon (Dublin) would value prayer for outreach events this month. Invitations are being sent to local people who showed some interest when the ‘4you’ Gospel magazine was distributed in the Summer & Autumn, to come to the Carol Service on Sunday 9th   DecemberOn Wednesday 12th, the ladies have their Christmas programme with a meal and a message.  Ladies who come to the different programmes in the Assembly are invited to this evening.
